Australia, 1850s.A travelers rest on the ruthless colonial frontier.A child is missing. A man is dead. A church is burned to the ground.When strangers take the law into their own hands in a land that is not their own, history will be forged and stories will be told in the name of survival.Holy Day is a powerful piece of gothic storytelling. Set against the isolation of the mid-19th century Australian landscape, the play begins with the arrival of three mysterious travellers and a stolen child. The relationship between white European settlers and the First Peoples is already fraught, and when an Indigenous woman is accused of taking the child, it sets in motion a series of tragic events, as the intersecting lives of four women and four men help shape the history of a nation. Political, complex and frighteningly current, this award-winning work deals with themes of race, gender and justice, exploring the conflict between new beginnings and forgotten pasts. 2002 Victorian Premier's Literary Award and AWGIE Stage Award winner
